Famous Paintings Trainer
Explore, Learn, Impress!
$4.99 · Designed for iPad
Learning famous paintings and the artists who created them offers a clearer understanding of art history, cultural development and stylistic differences across eras. Recognizing well-known artworks makes museum visits more meaningful and strengthens general cultural knowledge. This app provides a structured learning system designed for long-term retention rather than short-term quiz memorization.
At the core is an adaptive spaced repetition system that adjusts review intervals according to your real memory performance. If you recall a painting or artist after a longer interval than expected, the next interval increases. If you hesitate or answer incorrectly, the interval shortens without resetting your progress. This ensures that your study time targets exactly the artworks that still need reinforcement.
Two complementary learning modes support different learning preferences. Multiple Choice offers quick rounds with immediate feedback and helps build early recognition. Self-Assessment strengthens active recall: you view a prompt, try to retrieve the correct artwork or artist yourself, and then judge whether you knew it, almost knew it or did not know it. This approach is highly effective for establishing long-term memory.
The content is organized into clear art-historical sets covering different styles and periods, such as Renaissance, Baroque, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism and Modern Art. Each card shows a painting together with its title and artist. You can freely enable or disable sets and select the direction of questions, such as Painting → Artist or Artist → Painting. All settings can be changed at any time without loss of progress.
Tests provide a transparent evaluation of your knowledge. Each test presents all selected items once and awards a silver or gold medal depending on performance. This gives you a clear overview of your progress.
A full card browser is included for exploring artworks independently of learning sessions.
This update includes minor improvements and bug fixes for better stability.
